One word: gorgeous!

What is the pamor on the blade?

Is it the lighting or the color of pamor is kinda brownish and yellowish. But just from the picture, I can imagine how beautiful the contrast...

No no, you have all of my gratitude.

The Keris is without a doubt very old, as I mentioned earlier, to me the blade is real thin and fragile. The only way to make certain of things is really by...

Thank you for your honest review Dave.

Actually I found that statement through the thread that you forwarded to me. But for the life of me, I couldn't find the posting.

It is very difficult to verify just by looking at it. I was expecting to see an example or two of Kerises with Prambanan meteorite. I was wrong, there're none :o

However, thanks to the thread, I...

It is similar to wos wutah, but the pamor on this Keris doesn't disperse in several groups and it covers almost the entire surface of the blade. The hue or contrast between the pamor and wilah is a...

Absolutely, but I must ask you to please excuse the quality of the pictures. Amateurish is an overstatement of my photographic skills.

The Wilah and the pamor seem to split at the edge of the...

Noted, here are (I hope..) the better pics of the sheath.

I also can't tell as I am truly clueless whether the Wrangka had been reworked or not. But the wrangka is definitely similar to Detlefs....

Hiya Dave,

Interesting indeed. If I were an Abdi Dalem, I surely wouldn't want to catch myself 'dressed' in a t-shirt during palace ceremonies.

I am almost positive that Bali has its own style...

To tell you the truth, I care less about the sheath but not to say that the choice of warangka doesn't have any importance to the overall Keris itself.

I'm now even more curious, is there any...

Interesting, aside from my obvious puny of a talent in photography, I'm afraid I'm also a terrible sucker at Javanese history. The philosophy in the Keris itself, how it's made and the intricate...
